Where I'm trying to get to Travis's graduation party
I had an extremely complicated dream that mostly revolved around trying to make it to Travis's graduation party. One time it turned into an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. All these birds started dying in the air and just dropping to the ground. Then dead sheep and bugs dropped from the sky. A flea bit some supporting character who doesn't exist in the real show, and it sucked ALL his blood from his face, and he turned brown and looked like he was made out of crumbly marble. He was still alive, but he wasn't able to talk or really do anything with his face. And Buffy was acting totally weird and licking things and being no help at all.
Then Dad and Uncle Andy and I were walking through a shop and I realized it was a Buffy-themed shop. I thought, "I should totally get Travis something from here! He's such a Buffy fan!" (Which he's not.)
Then I was driving my dad to Sauk, when I realized I really needed to get to that party. I drove what I thought would be the way there, but I ended up going over a little river in a ferry and ending up in a little amusement park on an island. Mom was there, and Dad said he'd just ride to school with her, so I could make it to my party.
I ran back over the river which really wasn't all that deep, and ran up the stairs, where I gave a little ticket to the blind ticket collector, who was just sprawled out on the stairs leading up to the land. He was blocking half the stairway but was just taking tickets from there. I also talked to a little girl while I was trying to get to my car, but I don't know what happened there.
I drove until I found myself at a steakhouse. I went in and there were a bunch of people I knew, including a guy who I thought was Travis until I looked a little closer. Beth A. and Tyler were both there as well, and they told me I should hang out with them for awhile. But I knew I really needed to get to Travis's party and only had like a half hour left. So I inexplicably sang them a song about how I'd be back in like 15 minutes.
When I went outside, I couldn't find my car. I looked for it everywhere in the parking lot but couldn't find it. Then I realized the crew from inside would probably try to sabotage my car because I was leaving them. I looked and, sure enough, they were siphoning gas out of a red car. I chased them off and then realized they'd gotten the wrong car anyway, my car was right behind that one.
I got in it and started to drive but couldn't figure out how to make it to Travis's from here. Suddenly I was driving using a steering wheel in the back seat of the van, with people smooshed all around me, including Lococo. Joel and Elizabeth were in the seats ahead of me and I was getting very frustrated that I couldn't see over their heads as to where I was going. They kept yelling, "Turn here!" and I'd try to turn but then they'd yell, "NOT THERE!"

With the guy with the cushion stuck to his face, and filming and watching movies
I had this really, really, LONG dream that I'm going to try to remember, but it was all in bits and pieces.
There was a piece where Jayme and Dianna and I were assigning parts for the Christmas play. Leonie was back, and she and Travis ended up getting the leads. The drama team was all sitting around in my living room discussing the play and I accidentally mentioned that Leo and Travis were going to be the leads, but no one seemed to notice I told them before they were supposed to know.
Then Hannah A and Kayla walk in, and Hannah's holding a book and a movie, apparently the book and movie versions of the play we're going to do, titled "Flight To Journey" or something equally ridiculous. Jayme goes, "Ohhhhh, Hannah's done her research!" and proudly points to the movie, which we all then go into a huge theater to watch.
A bunch of other stuff happens in the middle but I can't remember exactly what. I do remember being in the theater watching the movie (which starred Gregory Peck) and seeing a guy walk down the stairs to a seat. The guy was a friend of someone's, only he couldn't walk very well - I think he was slightly mentally challenged or whatever they call it - and all of a sudden he fell down the stairs and landed RIGHT on his nose.
We all jumped up to see if he was okay, and he stands up and we discover he fell down and his face somehow got jammed into a cushion that was sitting on the stairs and now it was stuck to his face. We all tried to get it off but he kept screaming, "I think I broke my eyelid!" In all the confusion, a duck that was apparently Kayla's pet waddled over to me and sat there staring me in the face, except then it turned into a raccoon and tried to bite my finger.
There was also a part where Tim and Angela and I were filming a movie - I was the director and Tim and Angela were the stars, and it was an action movie set on a mountain. Some random guy in a leather jacket came up to Tim and said, "You are a cool party horse," and Tim punched him.
That's all I can remember.
